Walking through a set of faded wooden barn doors is like meandering into a hushed library. Instead of twisting aisles filled with story after story, barn aisles are filled with the sounds of munching hay, soft breathy snorts, and stomping hooves. It’s a place that can seem to be out of reach to much of the outside world. A barn is a dusty, sunlit cocoon, tucked away from the chaos of work, school, and stress.

This weekend’s winners rose above the fray to take home well-earned blue ribbons.

Scattered among the eventers and horses at the MARS Maryland 5 Star horse inspection in October were volunteers dressed smartly in matching red shirts. While all eyes were on the athletes, they worked behind the scenes, ensuring the event ran smoothly. The event was particularly special for volunteer Rebecca Proetto, who kept records and guided the athletes at the end of the jog strip.

Competition at Twin Rivers Ranch did not disappoint today for the Dutta Corp. USEA Young Event Horse (YEH) West Coast Championships. With a friendly galloping course and lots of options for riders to take, each combination was set up for success. Judges Christian Schact (GER) and Sally Ike (USA) had their work cut out for themselves to pick the winners.

It was a busy week at the MARS Maryland 5 Star, held Oct. 16-20 in Elkton, Maryland, with a five-star and three-star division running alongside the Dutta Corp. USEA Young Event Horse East Coast Championships. The USEA was there to capture all of the action. Here are some of our favorite photos.

Oliver Townend had no rails in hand heading into today’s show jumping at the MARS Maryland 5 Star, and while his veteran partner, the 17-year-old Irish Sport Horse Ballaghmor Class (Courage II x Kilderry Place), had already won three five-stars over his career, he’d also had a rail or two down on the final day, so a win wasn’t guaranteed.
